The official date the Rams last held a winning record was Nov. 4, 2006, the day before St. Louis lost, 31-17, to the Kansas City Chiefs. The loss was one of five in a row for the Rams, who ended up dropping seven of eight to fall to 5-8 overall. A three-game winning streak to end the season helped St. Louis finish 8-8.
